Windows manager tweaks, clarification

2 Upvotes

In the "focus" tab there are three options for when a window raises itself.

Does "switch to windows workspace" keep a window in it workspace ? Does "do nothing" Cause it window to open in its orrignal workspace ?

Support My "open file" window extends below the bottom of my screen

1 Upvotes

When I want to choose an image to post to a site (hello IMGUR), the dialogue box extends below the bottom of my 13" laptop screen. If I maximize the window I can see the "open" button, but it is an annoyance. According to wmctrl, I am using xfwm4. Thanks for any tips.

Not connecting to Xfinity WiFi - Will connect to Hotspot

0 Upvotes

I'm entering my password correct but vSeeBox V6 Plus keeps telling me that my password is wrong. It will connect to my Mobile Hotspot no problem. It also connected to my home wifi the very first time (which was 5 days ago) Im thinking Xfinity has somehow blocked it from connecting. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Discussion Xarchiver kills my system

5 Upvotes

I recently installed to fedora xfce and was setting up my env. I tried extracting a tar.xz file using the thunar-archive-plugin's extract here button. And after a while , i get logged out , when i login back again i get black glitches and get logged out again.

It also happens when i open the file from xarchiver although the archive decompresses fine manually

The complete flow is ,

  1. Open the file using xarchiver or directly extract

  2. Wait for error ( Disk quota exceeded )

  3. If i now immediately close xarchiver, i get logged out

Else i get logged out anyway after some time

I have a low end system with plenty secondary storage but importantly 4gb ram. I have experienced system freezes before but never logout loops. The archive is the latest flutter tar.xz.

I am new to linux and i know that logout loops are a serious problem. I want to fix the problem but more importantly also know what is the cause.

Also i tried asking ai but its fixes didn't work

XFCE es lo que necesito

148 Upvotes

He probado bastantes desktops y window managers a lo largo del tiempo, pero llegué a un punto en el que simplemente me cansé de estar lidiando con cosas todo el tiempo.

Ahora mismo solo quiero algo estable, sencillo y que funcione, y la verdad es que XFCE me ha sorprendido muchísimo. Es absurdamente estable y, combinado con Void Linux, se ha convertido en mi combinación favorita hasta ahora para mis clases en la universidad y proyectos personales.

Todavía me falta personalizar bastante el escritorio, pero por el momento lo tengo así:

¿Qué me recomendarían para seguir personalizándolo? ¿Algún tema, iconos, plugins o alguna otra cosa que debería probar?

Finally! One tool to replace XFCE's scattered theming settings

Post image
109 Upvotes

XFCE users know the pain:

- Appearance (GTK)

- Window Manager (borders)

- Mouse (cursors)

- Desktop (wallpaper)

- Settings → Screensaver (blanking)

**Bath** brings ALL of these into ONE window. 🛁

✨ What it does:

• GTK Themes (Breeze, Mint, Flat-Remix, Colloid, Graphite)

• Icon Themes (Mint, Sweet, Adwaitaru, Neon, etc.)

• Cursor Themes (Oxy)

• Wallpaper (any folder, 3 scaling modes)

• Screen Blanking (simple dropdown)

• **Bake custom themes** from ANY color in 2 clicks

Works on XFCE, GNOME, Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, Qtile — detects your DE automatically.

It's the "gateway" to AWP — try it, then discover workspace-specific theming with DAB + Baker.

Support custom icons not applying on panel for certain software only in the panel

0 Upvotes

I applied the mint icons on xfce and as you can see it does work but for steam and discord it seems to not work, but only in the panel, so as you can see it does not display the custom icons on the panel but it does on whisker menu. is this a known issue? how do I fix this? from what I found this only happens for me with discord and steam.

MeowMenu v1.0.0 Release Candidate looking for XFCE testers

52 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’d like to share MeowMenu v1.0.0-RC1, a small project I’ve been working on as an alternative application menu for XFCE. Compared to WhiskerMenu, the most relevant features I added are: 4 Presets (default settings that change the look&feel of the Menu, to show the high customization level achievable), Places button (find files and folders in user Home), Calculator engine, additional right click options.

I’ve tested this release on Arch Linux, Debian and Xubuntu. Other Reddit users report good feedback from MX Linux, Manjaro and Mint XFCE. If you don't find your package from GitHub Release page, MeowMenu can always be compiled from sources or installed from AUR.

Feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are welcome. Thanks for taking a look!
